I see what you mean, man. I have the trial version, but same result. The movie that I burned was 2:18:35 long, and according to the meter at the bottom before burning, the movie took up nearly all the space on the DVD. I only got a 1/4 inch of burnline. When I stuck it in the DVD player, I got the sound and no picture. I wasted one DVD-R and one DVD+R because of this. On each one was a different movie and both played fine on my computer. I really don't like Nero, since it takes over picture-viewing and music-playing programs, but I may have to download it again. I would really like to use ExpressBurn instead.
By the way, does anyone know why ExpressBurn doesn't have the option to burn at a speed slower than MAX?
I thank anyone who can help me with this problem!
